You have joined this site and maybe even a few more like it because you are frustrated, unhappy and even scared with the direction that our Great Nation is headed. Many of you have not been very involved in politics in the past but like me, this last election was the straw that broke your back. You say to yourself “I am not willing to sit here and watch the Country that I love fall apart” What can I do to to start to make a difference? I feel almost helpless.
I to had the very same feelings. I am going to share with you my opinion and the resources that I have found to help you get headed in the right direction.
The first thing I did was go online and find the Republican Party in my state, then became a volunteer.
The next thing I did was to go to my States website and found out who all of my officials were regardless of party. Another good place to find out who represents you is
http://www.capwiz.com/gopusa/home/ GOPUSA just type in your zip code and all of the contact info will come up, Start looking into their standings on the issues.
http://www.ontheissues.org/default.htm Ontheissues.org is a great place to find out that information. Just click on your state and you can see where your officials stand on just about any issue that you can think of.
Now that you know who represents you and where they stand, write them and call them often. (Stay away from petitions as I feel that they are ignored.) let them know how you feel. Now just don't complain to them let them know when you agree with them and try to keep your comments to one issue at a time. The next thing you can do is seek out people who has an understanding of smaller government and the same convictions that you have, I mean rooted in the same convictions as you and our founding fathers.
So let's seek those people out, the ones that are going to do something. Find them and support them, I don't just mean vote for them. We need to campaign for them, go door to door, man the phone banks. Explain to people what is going on. Do the best that you can. It's time for Americans to learn the truth about their country.
Below is a bunch of links to websites that I have found to be very useful. Contact your local papers and TV stations. Send letters to the editors, make comments on Blogs. Let your voice be heard. If we all make enough noise they will have no choice but to start to listen. Remember the squeaky wheel gets the grease, so squeak away.
http://www.govit.com/ A great place to see the latest bills and resolutions in congress.
http://www.factcheck.org/ Leans to the Left, but can still find good info.
http://www.cagw.org/site/PageServer Citizens against government waste. Find out where the pork fat is. (John McCain mentioned this site several times in his debates)
http://www.house.gov/ House of Representatives
http://www.house.gov/house/govsites.shtml Government Resources
http://www.senate.gov/ United States Senate
http://www.50states.com/news/ Links to over 3,300 United States Newspapers.
Also keep checking the discussions and blogs on sites like this to stay up to date on what issues are hot buttons.
I am truly concerned for the future of our Country and fear that with the most left-wing President in office, together with hard-core liberals like Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi and the such. This Nation is on a one way ticket to Socialism. So please take a good look at our Republican leadership, look into their voting records and show your support to the person who best represents true Republican values.
Do some research,look for the TRUTH and remember get involved, VOTE!!!!!!!, Local, State and Federal. Voice your concerns with the politicians that represent you. They work for us!!!!!!! WE THE PEOPLE
